Most mature T lymphocytes express CD3-associated antigen receptor molecules (TCR) formed by alpha and beta chains. Recently, a minor subset has been identified that express a different CD3-associated TCR composed of gamma and delta chains. The cell subset expressing TCR gamma/delta differs from conventional T cells in a number of phenotypic and functional characteristics. The simultaneous lack of both CD4 and CD8...
